Steal The Scene opened his account at Windsor last month. That looks stronger form than Lady Maesmor's maiden victory at Yarmouth over 7f. Alpine Affair won a handicap at Nottingham back in July but remains on a 9lb higher mark and Aqlette makes more appeal with improvement expected on her handicap debut. SOME SHOW (NAP) was successful at Windsor last month and went close in a tougher handicap than this at Leicester last time. Henry Candy's filly gets the vote to return to winning ways.
